f I r s T r e a d I n G 1 Samuel 3:3b-10, 19

Samuel was sleeping in the temple of the LORD where the ark of God was.The LORD called to Samuel, who answered, “Here I am.”Samuel ran to Eli and said, “Here I am. You called me.”“I did not call you, “ Eli said. “Go back to sleep.”So he went back to sleep.Again the LORD called Samuel, who rose and went to Eli.“Here I am, “ he said. “You called me.”But Eli answered, “I did not call you, my son. Go back to sleep.”

At that time Samuel was not familiar with the LORD, because the LORD had not revealed anything to him as yet.The LORD called Samuel again, for the third time.Getting up and going to Eli, he said, “Here I am. You called me.”Then Eli understood that the LORD was calling the youth.So he said to Samuel, “Go to sleep, and if you are called, reply,Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening.”When Samuel went to sleep in his place, the LORD came and revealed his presence, calling out as before, “Samuel, Samuel!”Samuel answered, “Speak, for your servant is listening.”

Samuel grew up, and the LORD was with him, not permitting any word of his to be without effect.

The word of the Lord.Thanks be to God.

r e s P o n s o r I a l P s a l M Psalm 40:2, 4, 7-8, 8-9, 10Owen Alstott

I have waited, waited for the LORD, and he stooped toward me and heard my cry.And he put a new song into my mouth, a hymn to our God. +

Sacrifice or offering you wished not, but ears open to obedience you gave me.Holocausts or sin-offerings you sought not; then said I, “Behold I come.” +

“In the written scroll it is prescribed for me,to do your will, O my God, is my delight, and your law is within my heart!” +

I announced your justice in the vast assembly; I did not restrain my lips, as you, O LORD, know. +

s e c o n d r e a d I n G 1 Corinthians 6:13c-15a, 17-20

Brothers and sisters:The body is not for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body;God raised the Lord and will also raise us by his power.

Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ?But whoever is joined to the Lord becomes one Spirit with him.Avoid immorality.Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the immoral person sins against his own body.Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?For you have been purchased at a price.Therefore glorify God in your body.

The word of the Lord.Thanks be to God.

G o s P e l John 1:35-42

John was standing with two of his disciples, and as he watched Jesus walk by, he said, “Behold, the Lamb of God.”The two disciples heard what he said and followed Jesus.Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them, “What are you looking for?”They said to him, “Rabbi” — which translated means Teacher —, “where are you staying?”He said to them, “Come, and you will see.”So they went and saw where Jesus was staying, and they stayed with him that day.It was about four in the afternoon.Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard John and followed Jesus.He first found his own brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” — which is translated Christ —.Then he brought him to Jesus.Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of John; you will be called Cephas” — which is translated Peter.

The Gospel of the Lord.Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,

At the words that follow, up to and including “and became man,” all bow: and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.

ForoursakehewascrucifiedunderPontiusPilate, hesuffereddeathandwasburied, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, whowiththeFatherandtheSonisadoredandglorified, who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The reception of Holy Communion is the most sacred act for Catholics. We believe that we are then receiving the Body and Blood of Christ. Catholics who are properly prepared should approach the ministers of Holy Communion.We ask non-Catholics not to receive. They are encouraged, however, to come forward with arms crossed over their heart to receive a blessing.

a n a c T o f s P I r I T u a l c o M M u n I o n

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

As Catholics, we fully participate in the celebration of the Eucharist when we receive Holy Communion. We are encouraged to receive Communion devoutly and frequently. In order to be properly disposed to receive Communion, participants should not be conscious of grave sin and normally should have fasted for one hour. A person who is conscious of grave sin is not to receive the Body and Blood of the Lord without prior sacramental confession except for a grave reason where there is no opportunity for confession. In this case, the person is to be mindful of the obligation to make an act of perfect contrition, including the intention of confessing as soon as possible (Code of Canon Law, canon 916). A frequent reception of the Sacrament of Penance is encouraged for all.

f o r o u r f e l l o W c h r I s T I a n s

We welcome our fellow Christians to this celebration of the Eucharist as our brothers and sisters. We pray that our common baptism and the action of the Holy Spirit in this Eucharist will draw us closer to one another and begin to dispel the sad divisions which separate us. We pray that these will lessen and finally disappear, in keeping with Christ’s prayer for us “that they may all be one” (John 17:21).Because Catholics believe that the celebration of the Eucharist is a sign of the reality of the oneness of faith, life, and worship, members of those churches with whom we are not yet fully united are ordinarily not admitted to Holy Communion. Eucharistic sharing in exceptional circumstances by other Christians requires permission according to the directives of the diocesan bishop and the provisions of canon law (canon 844 §4). Members of Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian Church of the East, and the Polish National Catholic Church are urged to respect the discipline of their own Churches. According to Roman Catholic Discipline, the Code of Canon Law does not object to the reception of Communion by Christians of these Churches (canon 844 §3).

f o r T h o s e n o T r e c e I v I n G h o l y c o M M u n I o n

All who are not receiving Holy Communion are encouraged to express in their hearts a prayerful desire for unity with the Lord Jesus and with one another.

f o r n o n - c h r I s T I a n s

We also welcome to this celebration those who do not share our faith in Jesus Christ. While we cannot admit them to Holy Communion, we ask them to offer their prayers for the peace and the unity of the human family.
